The other day, amidst the decisions, I almost took one by
saying “I am so fearful of the unknowns of that particular one.I want to take it, just to punch fear in the
face.”But I’m really glad that I didn’t,
you know punch fear in the face, because I think fear can punch back pretty
hard.And let’s be honest, I don’t have
a very good right hook.

My graduation cap said Adventure is out there.And I believe that adventure is out there,
because it’s in making the moments, monumental.It’s in making the insignificant, important.It’s not in making everything a big deal, but
in realizing that certain things are of great importance.Experiences shape.

I need to be reminded that life is an adventure, and I
should live it as a great one.And I
need to be reminded that fears should not confine my thinking, but rather
expand it.When I am fearful, it is
often because I created the boundaries and dictated the rules.In an adventure, there are no rules.

Rather than punching fear, I want to be freed of its companionship.Fear does not belong as a part of my
adventure.
